Oddest Thing, But Russian Ambassador Was at President’s Joint Session Speech. Guess Where He Sat…

Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak has been the subject of much controversy in the early weeks of Donald Trump’s presidency.

Specifically, the controversy surrounds which members of Trump’s fledgling administration met with the ambassador either during the campaign or the transition period, and whether or not they disclosed the reasons for those meetings (if they even acknowledged that they occurred).

In spite of all that, Democrats continue to focus their attention on a brief, public exchange between then Senator Jeff Sessions and Kislyak at a speaking event held at the same time as the Republican National Convention, and a meeting in his office witnessed by two U.S. senior staff members — one of thirty meetings the former Senator held on Capitol Hill.
